I have been involved with CPP for quite a while now. I love coming to the weekly workshops and catching up with everyone. I do make many of the survival items at home in my own time each week, I must enjoy ironing! I am also on the admin for our fb groups to help out where I can, it’s fantastic.

I look forward to my Sunday mornings with the CPP. I've always recycled but to give crisp packets a new life whilst helping our fellow beings is awesome.

I feel proud to be involved in such a worthwhile project. The need unfortunately seems to be getting greater.

All the people volunteering are such lovely human beings, full of compassion and fun. Coming into The Art Shack is always a joy.

CPP is such an amazing project and I feel privileged to be able to contribute and work alongside lovely people, recycling crisp packets into useful items for those who need them.

Together we can make a difference

Giving life to one use plastics and saving lives. We recycle crisp packets  by making survival items we are a non profit organisation started and based in Hastings. Working with homeless charities and organisations sending items to vulnerable areas now war zones and national disasters.

When you have nothing this is something

Crisp packets are a very strong material this takes over 80 years  decomposed. Also the crude oil used to make the packet the energy, resources to create this amazing material. this should not be wasted. It should be put too work

Bringing people together

We make create and make new friends this is another string to our bow at CPP Hastings HQ
